Personal Log Stardate 47011.5 The moment of leaving the space dock is indescribable. The thrill of having my first command under me, the beauty of seeing the stars slide by, the warmth of friendship…I’m not poet. It is a great feeling to be out from under the heavy thumb of Admiral Hawthorne. I can’t believeContinue reading “Settling In”

On My Way
Personal Log Stardate 47011.4 I’m in the shuttle en route to the Avenger. Just a couple more hours and I’ll be at my first command. I am more than ready to start. I’m looking forward to settling in with my new crew and seeing what this ship is capable of. I’ll add a supplemental logContinue reading “On My Way”
Many Loose Ends
Captain’s Log Stardate 47010.1 Now that it has come down to it, there are so many details to take care of. Having my personal effects transferred to the ship; sorting through last minute correspondence; reading status reports on weapons systems, power systems, sensors, replicators, deflectors, structural power systems, and even turbo lifts. To saying nothingContinue reading “Many Loose Ends”
Counting Down the Days
Captain’s Log Stardate: 47008.6 Two days until I officially take command of the U.S.S. Avenger NCC 53505. There needs to be a word that describes that feeling of both anxiety and eagerness. I can’t wait to start, but at the same time I’m apprehensive. But I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it. I’ve heardContinue reading “Counting Down the Days”
Unsettling News from Bajor
Personal Log Stardate: 47007.7 I’ve just got a subspace message from my brother Rerku. He is a Vedek at the Mercou Monastery and He wrote to me that Vedek Winn is gaining more support in the Vedek Assembly. That’s not good news. She is, for all reports, a power hungry Vedek who manipulates those whoContinue reading “Unsettling News from Bajor”
Kicking my Heels
Personal Log Stardate: 47006.8 So, I have plenty of time these days. With the Admiral blocking access to the Avenger (he wants me to study up more on the technical schematics), I don’t have much on my calendar. As a result, I’ve been reviewing my personal library, rereading some of my favorites, and thus haveContinue reading “Kicking my Heels”
A Little Bit of Nostalgia
Personal Log Stardate: 47006.3 Recently, I’ve been thinking about my heritage and upbringing. I caught a scent from one the food vendors on Utopia Planetia and it instantly brought me back to home. The vendor was using a combination of spices that remind of one of my childhood favorites. My father used to cook anContinue reading “A Little Bit of Nostalgia”
A Longing for Home
Personal Log Stardate 47004.4 After talking with Vedek Marsel, and reviewing the Klingon doctor’s work on Bajor, I am so very homesick. Having grown up on Usal IV, I’ve never spent much time on my home world. I’ve visited only once the Cardassians left, right after Bajor was liberated. What a glorious homecoming that was!Continue reading “A Longing for Home”
Cold Message
Captain’s log Stardate 47003.5 I just got a subspace message from Admiral Hawthorne wanting to meet me at Utopia Plantia in the next few days. To say that the message was chilly is an understatement; it could have froze out a fire wraith. I know that some in Starfleet don’t think I’m up for theContinue reading “Cold Message”
Intelligence Conference
Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken. — Oscar Wilde. Captain’s log Stardate: 47001.8 Two weeks. Two whole weeks—what a waste. Twenty or so intelligent specialists guessing at what a dozen different hostiles might be doing. We spent two whole days on the Ferengi, the Ferengi! A species who can be placated with replicated gold.Continue reading “Intelligence Conference”
